National Service insurance policy now optional
The management of the National Service Scheme has announced its proposed
insurance policy for personnel will now be optional for interested
personnel.
“The decision was taken at an Emergency Executive Council Meeting of
the National Service Personnel Association (NASPA) held in Accra yesterday,
after broad consultations with major stakeholders on the policy, and how
best it would serve the interest of national service personnel,” a
statement by the Ag. Executive Director, Ussif Mustapha said.
It said the management has consequently decided to suspend the
mandatory monthly deductions of GHȻ15.00 from personnel allowances, and
urged all National Service personnel to remain calm as their concerns
regarding the insurance policy are being addressed.
The introduction of the policy as a compulsory offer saw personnel
protest vehemently, including a resort to court action against what they
described as an imposition.
